The feature event doesn't carry a title, but it promises to deliver with hometown fighter George Webb-Rose tackling Queenslander Jeremy Manguerra at super middleweight.
"George's trainer (Corey Pyle) wanted to test his limits basically and I think Jeremy will be a hard match for George," coordinator Graeme Melbourne said.
Manguerra boasts a 15-3 record, while Webb-Rose has just the one loss from 19 bouts.
"It's when he performs his best I believe," Webb-Rose's trainer Corey Pyle said of his protege at home.
Albury's Cleveland Waters will tackle Strathmerton's Marcus Davis in a light middleweight title bout, while the Victorian regional masters is the second title fight.
A charity fundraiser will also be held for Splitters Creek Rural Fire Brigade and Rutherglen Fire Brigade.
Jesse Payne, who has just transferred to Rutherglen CFA, will fight ex-North Albury footballer Clint Gilson.
